The broken TV. Famously first into Iraq... the second time, that is.

I’ve seen the video from someone in the crowd but not sure where. The rep was basically reading from a script and the veteran called him out for screwing them over and called him a liar and that they are betraying veterans. Then when the cops came he started yelling fuck you to the rep. Wish the other folks would have had his back

Not sure of the ‘thin blue line’ part (although it wouldn’t surprise me), but in a Republican Town Hall a bunch of Republican voters were yelling at their rep (who smiled like a cat in the cream) about all the job cuts and stuff. This guy got extra loud about it so the police dragged him out.
So just another leopards eating faces moment, really. For these knuckle-draggers, the fact that their ‘team’ won is more important than losing their jobs… right up until it happens.

Too many people think decorum and tradition will stop proto-fascist hacks who abandoned both decades ago.

A day off from trying to stop fascism? No, no I don't think I will. Thanks though, I appreciate the concern! I just got back from vacation anyway.
